MOOD TODAY: CONFLICTED

I forgot to mention that before my interview I went and got a haircut because I had really fricking long hair. I don't any more- I instructed my hair...dresser dude. Uh, his name is Darrell. I basically told Darrell that I needed to look respectable for a job interview and that I like having my stupid long bangs* but everything needed to be cut.

I came out looking more than ever like the incredible fusion of Quatre Winner and Koushiro Izumi. That made me smile.

But then today I realized that it also makes me look more than ever like Archie (from the comic). HM. CONFLICTED.


Oh also, I got the museum job! 8D And from the sounds of it, more than one of my friends got in as well! Score!. Guh, I kind of feel like I don't deserve it, though, because apparently the dude interviewing me plays bridge with my grandparents and one of my references is a member of the Historical Society and is a family friend... but I hardly know her personally. It was pretty much blatant name dropping. :/ Aaaaaand augh. :/ He did say that it was Charlotte- my manager from Sears- who he called for a reference, so that's something, at least. There's no way that anything but my own value as a worker has influenced her.

Guh, but I'm feeling like they need me at the clinic to take care of filing, too, which pays more buuuut I'll be working in the same building as my parents which is just not good on a resume and besides, filing is so much less awesome that giving tours around museums (and downtown PA**) ANYWAY, I AM CONFLICTED HERE, TOO, except there isn't really any way to say no to this job. I want it so badly and now I have it and augh I wish I knew that I deserved it!

FINALLY, I am conflicted about this video. I'll warn you right now, it is very typically Japanese***. BUT I DIG THE MUSIC and the gratuitous fighting.

*Dangit, I'm not making eye contact with just anyone!

**I'd better go buy a knife or something, haha. :B except aaaaaaaaa

***For those of you who aren't giant weeaboos giant weeaboos, that means (possibly underage) pantyshots.**** And, uh, hammerspace in Miku's... skirt. 8| JAPAN I JUST DON'T KNOW ANY MORE. It ends with a valuable lesson, though- it's okay to snoop at girls underwear as long as you don't take any. wtfffffff

****But not as underage as some I've seen, thank you very cute video with a what, six-year old chibi Pikachu moemon that ended with her falling over and showing her panties. THANKS JAPAN JUST WHAT EVERYONE WANTS TO SEE TEE HEE~ SURPRISE PEDOPHILIA~ >:|


...HERE. THIS VIDEO WON'T MAKE YOU UNCOMFORTABLE, I PROMISE.

Congrats on the job! You should take it, it sound like something right up your alley!

You should post a picture of your new haircut, I'd love to see it!

Thank youuu! I will, I'm sure, but I still feel bad leaving the clinic in the lurch.

Hm, maybe I will in a few days.

Hey, congrats! Giving tours around museums sounds so cool. With any luck, I'll being doing historical house tours this summer (though, I won't be getting paid for it :C )

Also. Japan. The pantyshots. What the hell?

At least in Apollo Justice, when Trudy started going on about her underwear, Apollo had the appropriate response. That being 'WHAT THE HELL MY BOSS'S UNDERAGED DAUGHTER IS SHOWING ME HER UNDERWEAR DO NOT WANT DO NOT WANT'.

Haha, I'm so excited for it, it's a little silly. :B That's a cool thing to volunteer for! And hey, if nothing else it'll look good on a resume.

I knowww. I can be watching something and think, 'hey, this is awesome!' and then something like that shows up and leaves me going :| . I think schoolgirl panties are kind of Japan's thing.

I was a page there a few years ago, and it was a lot of fun! The only problem I had with it was that it was in a very stuffy Victorian house in the middle of summer, and I had to wear Victorian clothing. It got reeeally hot and uncomfortable some days. But I heard that they kept having tour guides pass out from heat exhaustion, and so they stopped doing the costumes.

Ewwww Japan.

Aw, but the costumes would be awesome! What's a little passing out now and then when you get to wear that stuff? :B
